[#6509704]

Only ones I've found so far are the surlys which everyone says is ridiculouly heavy and the mukluks (aluminium - ew). I've heard and seen people running single speed on the Jeff Jones Spaceframe but without even using a chain pulley? I'm not sure what you would do when the chain starts to stretch? I'm kind of addicted to that tight tension SS speed! If anyone could help me out here, that'd be great 🙂

9:ZERO:7 runs with a 135 rear hub too, for extra easiness.

Right. Turns out reverse psychology really does work on you lot. And the 9zero7 is aluminium :S can't stand it, and much, much prefer the solidness of steel.

Erm Jones isn't a fat bike and uses a ebb for tension

Puffin would do for you as steel and has an ebb

You could always go custom steel
